Power all VDD pins with proper supply decoupling and bypassing connect like shown in Figure 67.
Power down unused blocks through registers to minimize power consumption.
Leave unused clock outputs floating and powered down through register control.
Leave unused clock inputs floating.
For EEPROM+SPI Mode: Leave HW_SW_CTRL and STATUS[1:0] pins floating during POR to ensure proper start-up. These pins has internal biasing to VIM internally.
If HW_SW_CTRL or either STATUS pin is connected to a host device (MCU or FPGA), the external device must be configured with high-impedance input (no pullup or pulldown resistors) to avoid conflict with the internal bias to VIM. If needed, external biasing resistors (10-kΩ pullup to 3.3 V and 3.3-kΩ pulldown) can be connected on each STATUS pin to bias the inputs to VIM during POR.
Use a low-noise, high-PSRR LDO regulator to power the external oscillators used to drive the XO and TCXO inputs. Typically, oscillator jitter performance is typically impacted by switching noise on its power supply.
Include a dedicated serial port to the I2C or SPI pins of the LMK05028.
This allows off-board programming for device bring-up, debug, and diagnostics using TI's USB hardware interface and software GUI tools.
